Well, it's not like many of the other smilies have any limbs at all, so I suppose he has the advantage. :biggrin:

Edit: Has anyone noticed that rofl-smiley guy has only one foot?

Is that a foot?! Oh, Im going to admit to being really stupid and say that I thought that was a hand. Like it was shaking its finger as its laugh. In some sort of weird 'dont go there girlfriend' way....it being a foot makes way more sense though!!

A week til the open day! Excited and terrifed all at the same time :frown:

I would say not stupid AT ALL. Seeing as that's what I thought. Thinking outside the box, that's what I'd call it.

Haha yes that's definitely it 'thinking outside the box'. We have alternative imaginations.

An alternative imagination will always come in handy. Now I feel so common. :p:

How comforting, but it would be a hindrance if he just wanted to roll away. An extra limb could impede speed.

I think I'm not patient enough. After all, we're only 11th March and they have plenty of time to send decisions, lol. Oh gosh, really I hate waiting for a reply. Checking mails and post is too musch stress, lol.

Haha I dont know, 'alternative imagination' makes me sound like a psycho killer trying to justify my actions 'I have an alternative imagination'
And I swear, Im not a serial killer, just to clarify. :smile:

Good luck to everyone whose decisions will probably come through in the next week or so! Just think, its nearly over! :biggrin:

Well I meant it in the best way possible. I hope you're not a psycho killer given that you are going to Grey and I'll be next door literally. ;shoot;

I emailed Durham today... apprantly, my application is still with the Dept. but it hasn't been rejected, yet :s-smilie:

They forwarded my email to the English and Philosophy dept. so I should hear something relatively soon...

I was debating calling but i guess mine is probably sitting in the same place as yours :rolleyes:

My friend withdrew her English application to Durham today because she was sick of waiting ( and had her first choice anyway). I was like nooooo you might've got in! It is a relief to see alot of people in the same position as me-GOOD LUCK to the last few dwindlers x

Well that was a little hasty! Apparently all the English decisions were made last week. They are notifying people in batches now. Everyone should know by the end of this week.

How do I know this? I am a ninja that's why! :ninja:

Ok not really, some girl called up and posted the results of the call. But I would still make a fantastic ninja.
